3/4 inch. I have several of these. $7.50 each, item #5360
Unique Political Postcard. Has the Connecticut State Flower and seal on the

Roosevelt in '32 cast iron bootjack. I believe this to be a reproduction, or a
fantasy item. I do not think it is a period piece from the campaign. If not a
repro, it looks to have been repainted at least, but I believe it to be a repro.
I looked on the internet to see if I could confirm this, but could find no
information, or any others for sale at the time of listing. If it was a period
campaign piece it would be very valuable, but I am selling it as a reproduction.
10 1/2 inches. $49.00 Heavy, so shipping would be by zone. item #4595

Jimmy Carter Walter Mondale optic campaign button. Depending on the angle when
you view it it shows either Jimmy Carter or Walter Mondale in black and white.
These are the hardest buttons to photograph. It is hard to get a good image, the
button looks much better than the photos depict. Marked on the back Vari-Vue.
Light rust on the pin. A few light scratches. 2 1/2 inches. $14.50 item #5342
Franklin Delano Roosevelt FDR lapel pin. The round thing you see on the back
slipped through a button hole on a collar. Enamel on metal. This would have been
the type of thing a campaign worker or financial contributor would have worn as
they were more expensive to produce, and also more subtle, than a campaign
button. 5/8 inch, good shape, light wear. $42.50 item #5344
